How about the heat, everyone is saying it works well in the very cold, but here in Kansas, it does get very hot and very very sunny, like in the upper 90’s for a few weeks, not terrible humidity though. Most electronics can take up to at least 140° of direct heat (different than the ambient temps recommended). It shouldn’t melt, as it will be in the morning sun. The evening sun gets my front door up to 160°.

I’ve been using hand sanitizer wipes containers (for backyard only where folks wont really see them). The cams fit very snug inside the containers - hold it upside down and cam stays put. So far so good in full rain. Desiccant pack placed inside each one. I would recommend cutting the containers with scissors instead of razorblade, though.

You might try putting the camera tight against the plastic, so there is no room for the night LED to reflect back into the lens. IMO, weather isn’t really a problem, vs vandalism. That plastic box will protect the camera from most abuse.

NEAT !!! I think I like your idea better than mine (which I plan to post soon) your idea is much more simple than mine ! If the white plastic inside reflects the IR too much maybe painting the inside flat black might help.

We’ve been working on the outdoor camera with our manufacturer! We’re still in the design phase though so we don’t have any dates or promises to give yet. Some people have requested solar power but we probably won’t be able to make that work with the first version. We are investigating battery power though.

On the WYZE Cam Pan can be protected with a Glass enclosure. I used a Display Dome which is heavy glass and runs $ 24-45, but just went to Target and in aisle B36 they sell a Glass Canister with Wood Lid. It sells under the name Threshold. Drilled a hole in the base to exit the USB and the lid holds on with a rubber gasket.
